Repair or replace a flat roof?
Flat roofs fail in different ways: a puncture, a split seam, a blocked outlet or a membrane that has simply reached the end of its life. A small, local defect can often be repaired, but widespread deterioration or leaks that keep coming back may justify replacement. Looking at the waterproofing, drainage and the structure underneath is what shows which applies.
